Al-Dosari urges Arab nations to take "collective stance" on international media platforms violating region"s principles RABAT: Arab countries need a unified approach to address media content that violates the region’s religious, cultural and moral principles, said Saudi Arabia’s media minister on Wednesday. Speaking at the Council of Arab Information Ministers’ 53rd session in Rabat, Morocco, Salman Al-Dosari called for “a collective Arab stance on international media platforms that disseminate content violating our principles and values, requiring these platforms to respect publishing regulations in our countries.” He highlighted the common challenge posed by such platforms and the lack of effective mechanisms to hold them accountable and ensure compliance with publishing regulations in Arab countries. “Some international media platforms spread content that violates Arab religious, cultural and moral principles, without respect for every society’s right to protect and observe its own values and culture,” Al-Dosari explained. The 53rd session of the Council of Arab Information Ministers approved yesterday a unified strategy to deal with international media companies, in addition to endorsing the formation of a high-level team of specialists to negotiate with these companies.
